years, the unraveling tore it apart forever. >> that's all for now. i'm ann curry and >> right now at 11:00, which pipelines in the bay area are most at risk according to pg&e's own documents. >> c-section are at an all time high. what some are say suggest behind that increase and when to expect a drop in the temperature. the news starts right now. good evening. i'm diane dwyer. new information from san bruno about the explosion and fire, but first we are just learning about other pipelines in the bay area that are considered at high risk. according it a public filing,

pg&e said the pipeline most at risk is a section that runs through livermore. the second highest in fremont. state regulators ordered pg&e to conduct immediate inspections of the entire natural gas pipeline system. monty francis is in san bruno with the latest on that. monty? >> reporter: pg&e routinely checks lines for leaks, but some are questioning the safety record, especially when it comes to gas transmission lines. today the california public utilities commission ordered pg&e to keep the gas line out of service until further notice and to test all of the natural gas lines for leaks. it was a move to reassure the public, but mark leno of san francisco was not among the reassured. >> that means there is no current regulation that they must regularly inspect their lines. they need a directive.

>> reporter: he points to categories showing between 2002 and 2009 there were 19 gas line breaks in pg&e's system. part was due to equipment failure or operator error. in a statement released tonight, they said they spent $100 million to improve their gas system. the company would fully comply with the order. despite numerous reports from residents of a smell of gas in the air in the days before the san bruno explosion, a pg&e spokesman told us this. >> we're researched phone records between september 1st and september 9th. we have no record of a call being made to report gas odor. >> leno said he doesn't believe pg&e and he has good reason. >> they're have a history of falsifying record when is it comes to the reporting of gas leaks. >> pg&e told us the same section

of the gas line was deemed a high risk to fail and scheduled to be repaired in 2012. the day after the explosion, pg&e tested the section that runs through south san francisco and sound no leaks. mark tony heads the network that has been investigating for years and said san bruno is not the only high risk spot in the bay area. >> there other pipelines that are old, that have been identified as high risk for leaks and that are in the process of being replaced. >> reporter: documented filed with the puc show that the risk of failure of that section of this pipeline in south san francisco is "unacceptably high despite those repairs to that section of the pipeline." they are not scheduled to begin for two more years. monty francis, bay area news. >> monty, thank you. >> oh, my god. that is crazy. >> take a look at this.

independent inspector. >> she added just doesn't think she can sleep here. the house rocked so violently, she wants an engineer to tell her it's safe. >> the view off the deck -- >> totally surreal to seat neighborhood vanished. >> as for the rumors that people smelled gas before the explosion, two people said they did smell gas and did not call pg&e. man had an appliance repair person who mentioned the gas smell as well. as for the 37 homes that were destroyed, the people who live in the homes are supposed to meet with city officials tomorrow morning at 10:00. federal investigators said they still have more work to do at the site of the explosion. bay area's kimberly perry has the latest on the investigation and what caused this explosion in the first place. kimberly? >> reporter: federal investigators are hoping to wrap up the work here in san bruno in the next day or two, but there

it isn't just this issue itself that may or may not be the company's fault and that is not what they are trying to find out, but they come in with a tattered reputation in recent months and years. >> the june proposition that banned cities from starting their own utility couples and criticism of smart meters as well. stay with us for continuing coverage of the san bruno explosion. our team is up dating the website with information and new pictures as soon as we get. i mentioned we have a link to to the pipeline maps and you can check to see if your neighborhood has large underground pipelines. you can see where the two most at lisc pipelines are. coming up next, a bay area arena turns into a crime scene. the search for the gunman.
